I also want to start scuba diving and martial arts at some point.

Do you think the drill instructors should sit him down and discuss Sun Tzu's "The Art of War" or run mock battles with this new recruit to see if he can make it?

Gotta love liberalism.

by removing all regulation, all building code, liberalization of permit, no zoning at all...

Second, I see a few mentions of Californians leaving their state and bringing the 'liberal' (or however you want to label it) ideals/politics to other states, which is potentially upsetting locals and I can understand where they're coming from.

From my narrow point of view of Ventura County millennials that aren't in tech or a liberal waitress, any young person with a good head on their shoulders will be packing up and leaving soon. 

Is that awful or liberating?

The most liberal cities have great appreciation partly because of all the restrictions and more building expenses, set asides etc...creates an ongoing supply issue that never gets resolved politically.

Since California is so liberal , all those measures will probably pass . 

When the liberal, successful families who live in the nicer sections called the police in the spring because relocated, homeless men were masturbating in front of their children the progressives shrieked at them: "How dare you judge that poor man!"
